Re: Goodbye Hydlide?

I've started work on a new track. At the moment I've lined up about 28 different devices, mostly RE synths, including 1 Kong, 1 Echo, 3 audio tracks with various samples on them. 2 Utility RE's and 2 vst effects. I'll probably remove and change some of the synths as at the moment as I'm testing things. So far only 5 of the tracks have sequence data and one audio track plays various samples.
The point being: In Preferences, if 'Use multi-core audio rendering' and 'Use hyper-threading audio rendering' are unticked I get two DSP bars. If they're both ticked I get one bar.
If I tick 'hyper-threading' only I get two bars, if I tick 'multi-core' only I get one bar.
It jumps up one bar on both settings slightly now and then. There doesn't seem much noticeable difference with having both boxes ticked or only 'multi-core' ticked, therefore I don't know if the hyper-threading setting is doing much in this case. However, this confirms what Mattius said earlier for sure. I'm using an i5 quad core laptop, I think it's about 7 years old now.
It would be really helpful by the way, if the preferences window was always on top or perhaps had it's own taskbar tab.
It was time-consuming to keep minimizing the 3 separated windows all the time when testing.
This would also help when checking / unchecking the boxes to see what works best for individual songs!
Here's a thought: The tool window always stays on top, so could the code that does that be put with the preferences window code?
